Attached earlobes in humans is an inherited condition. The allele for the attached earlobe is recessive.

What are the chances of parents, both having attached earlobes to have a child with attached earlobe

A monohybrid cross is conducted between one variety of pea plants having pods that are full (FF) and another having pods that are constricted (ff).

What is the percentage of heterozygous offspring in the F1 generation?

Two tall pea plants are used to produce a progeny of 20 pea plants. The two parent plants have a genotype of TT and Tt respectively.
How many short pea plants will be found In the progeny in the F1 generation?

Plants that reproduce through asexual reproduction give rise to similar and not identical offsprings. What could be the most likely reason for the above statement to be true?

Pea plants can have green or yellow seeds. One of the phenotypes shows dominance over the other. A farmer decides to pollinate a flower of a plant with green seeds using pollen from a flower of a plant with yellow seeds. The resulting pod has all green seeds.
What should be the genotype of the parent plants to give green and yellow seeds in equal proportions?

The farmer crosses two heterozygous green seeded plants and obtains 100 plants in the F1 generation. What would be the number of green and yellow seeds respectively in the F1 generation?

Sex determination in humans happens through sex chromosomes. Along with other parameters, such processes often help in forensic studies in crime investigation and / or identification of accidents and natural calamities. In order to determine whether an accident victim is male or female, which cells can be used and why?

Two pea plants heterozygous for round seeds and tall stem were crossed. Out of 720 offspring obtained from this cross, how many offspring would have round seeds and tall stem?
